- the adjustment of the emitter resistance is carried out via technological parameters, such as the thickness of the epitaxially grown resistance region 200, the dopant concentration profile or the concentration of foreign elements in the resistance region 200.
- the resistance value of the resistance region 200 may be slightly influenced by the layout geometry of the resistance region 200.
